1970 Map of Pando

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Camp Hale (Site) occupies the valley floor of the Eagle River, serving as a silent reminder of the high-altitude training grounds established for the 10th Mountain Division during World War II. By 1970, the physical structures of the camp had largely been cleared, leaving behind the expansive flats where the Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad tracks flank the river. The small settlements of Pando and Mitchell provide key reference points for researchers of this alpine corridor. The surrounding landscape of the White River National Forest is defined by complex water management and resource extraction. Significant hydrological features like the Wurts Ditch and Mitchell Ditch cut across the contours of Bennett Ridge, while evidence of the area's mining history persists at the El Capitan Mine and various prospects near Resolution Creek. To the east, the boundary between Eagle and Summit Counties follows the high terrain of Chicago Ridge.
